Food is AMAZING and portions are huge! Had the Tonnarelli Mari e Monti and a pizza (can't remember which one), and the portions are humongous! Very close to Roma Termini too. Better to come hungry!

Gina Hsin

Went there twice while in Rome, absolutely loving it. Staff were very friendly and food are delicious. Would highly recommend for people want to try some local food

Bucatini all’amatriciana flambé are an absolute highlight! Sauce is amazingly tasty, however on the salty side. Venue is always very crowded but spacious , make a booking or you’ll wait a little bit.

David Samuelson

When you imagine going to Italia and fall into a genuine trattoria packed with locals on a weekday 22:30. Very nice staff , fast service and super cheap . And of course, food was delicious.

Berk Özgenç

Spagetti with clams and mushroom pizza is delicious! Very good taste and ambiance. Midyeli spagettisi ve mantarli pizzasi inanilmaz guzel. Ev yapimi beyaz saraplarida 10 numara! Rezervasyon sart!!!

Fav restaurant . Only Italians, crowded , book in advance:) #1, Pasta is delicious!!(seafood ), as well as pizza ! Even Caprese salad is heavenly good. Prices are heavenly good too

Jennifer Fay

Lovely pasta , great pizza , awesome bread ! Make sure to be on time before they open at seven in order to get a table without reservation . Totally worth it! Super price quality ratio.

Gavin Douglas

We sought this place out for their bucatini amatriciana flambé & were not let down. Very cheap & great authentic food. Not a tourist place, but always busy so make a reservation in advance. Loved it!

Jeremy Gooi

Bucatini amatriciana was a bit too al dente but sauce was creamy good esp with bread . The ox tail was tender, fall-off-the-bone & meaty, typical Roman dish as recommended by our cute server Alessandro

Michael B.

We searched this up while waiting for a train just about 15-20 min from Termini. One of the better lunch meals we’ve had in Rome and we’ve been here many times. Quality food. Really good!

Sara

Delicious and affordable . Definitely a great find !! Flambé pasta €10 and house wine €3.50. Only con is that it's a bit too loud .

jenni tapanila

pizzas & pastas are both tasty and prices very reasonable (7-12 euros each, 3.5 euros for 0.5 litre wine ). however prepare to queue 15-30 min OR book beforehand. toilet is poor and wifi doesn’t work.

Stauros Asto

Good prices good portions and nice white wine ! Definitely try Bucatini all’ amatriciana flambé !!! It’s made inside a cheese in front of you!

Pavel Korec

Amazing Bucatini all amatriciana flambe and Gnocehi al gorgonzola e funghi porcini . Very cheap and authentic food. Staff were very friendly .

Stavros Vassos

Less fancy , but this place has some intense, pure Roman cuisine. Try the "focaccia con prosciutto e mozzarella " for appetizer , and the "amatriciana flambe " and "caccio e pepe" pasta dishes.

Zeynep Ozturk Ozyer

The best tomato bruschetta ! They have big portions , delicious food and cheaper than most of the places! Go early as locals are also visiting regularly here.

Daphne Berikaki

Pasta flambé was amazing, the wine was fantastic, the bruschetta with olive spread was ok. Very good prices! Loved it!

Anastasiia Demidova

The best pizza I've tried in Rome. 4 cheeses - my love. Great atmosphere, good prices. Call them to order the table,because it's hard to find free place in the evening.

Yuting XU

The best spaghetti I've ever tried in Rome so far!! After a few weeks still miss it so much. The price is good when compared with the other restaurants . I want to try all the dishes on its menu. ;)

Alejandro Hernández

'Bucatini all'amatriciana flambé ' is a must stop before going to Termini (train station ) an leave Rome. A-MA-ZING ???? ????????????????????

Ishan

Definitely can't go wrong with the amatricana, though be warned the portions are large, and the dish heavy. Make a reservation if you're eating there past 8pm. Very reasonable!

Marcello Marchese

I'm still drooling when I think of their amatriciana. Try also porchetta , mozzarelline fritte and fiori di zucca...delicious.

Aleš Hron

Hidden behind the corner but great place to visit walking hungry near pzza vittorio emanuele. They are locally known for pasta flambe but my tip is pizza contadina. Tough guys approach, nice place! :)

Katerina Sereth

Excellent traditional italian trattoria...bucatini ala amatriciana to die for!must visit if you want to experience a real italian meal !not a touristic trap!

Jessica Rae

Their specialty is bucatini all’amatriciana which they flambe and mix it up in a pecorino wheel. Portion sizes are generous and dishes start at €9. reservations are highly recommended.

Dan C

Don’t get the set menu . The flambé is fantastic but the second course is tripe and oxtail which was almost inedible. Just order from the normal menu and expect big portions .

Miro Y

Forget the house wine (cheap but nothing special) but the pasta here are the best in Rome. Try truffle pasta , you won’t regret it! And don’t go there without reservation .

Miles Ng

Lively ! Authentic Italian good. Come early as the place gets full very quick! YUMMY!!!!! Must try: Buscaniti Parmigiana !

Rodolpho Visoná

It was the best carbonara that I ever ate! It was awesome!

Laurence

The best restaurants to eat real Italian food and for cheap . Do not forget to book a table. It's full noon and evening.

Daniel Grayson

The amatriciana is unreal. You’ll think you’ve entered a parallel universe where food is impossibly good.

Kristina Gromova

Mushroom and gorgonzolla gnochi are so tasty!! Place is authentic and gets full quickly. Cheap house wine :)

Catalina Vivancos Sánchez

Excellent Cacio e Peppe!! Better get a reservation because otherwise you might wait for over an hour. Nice service, we had a good time :D

Polina Mushchinina

Very big portions , nice staff , tasty. It's great place for fun and for Italian atmosphere . In the evening you'd better book a table

Jane Holmes

amazing food! wine is soo cheap ! make sure you call for table reservation as the place is always packed!

Ishwarya Venkatachalam

Best food in Italy!! The tiramisu is so tasty! And their house wine is really inexpensive (3.5 Euros for half a liter)

Raul Leuska

Amazing place with great atmosphere, affordable prices , amazing Italian food and superb service.

Lucas Guratti

Just... go. Seriously. The amatriciana flambé is the best I had in my life. Make sure you're hungry, portions are big.

Good sized portions, authentic dishes . The beef cutlet was a little too vinegar-y but otherwise the meal was great.
